Hi...
I tried some configs, and I noticed something very strange...
At boot time, when GDM is starting, it's in English. But if I log on as root in a console, and I stop and restart GDM, it's in French...
Can somebody explain this strange situation ? How can I set up the thing to start immediatly in French ?

The return of "GDM in French"
It is because gdm probably feeds on the LC_CTYPE enviromental variable, which is set for you (you can see if it is set really with the 'locale' command).
If GDM doesn't have a setting according to the locale in some 'control center', you can edit the /etc/init. d/gdm file by hand, putting this line to the beginning of the file:
export LC_CTYPE=fr_FR
(or whatever locale you set up -- you can change it with dpkg-reconfigure locales)
It is a quickHack(TM) approach, but it should work...
